MCC Grows Champions
MCC Grows Champions! Justin Smith, son of MCC owners Pam and Chip Acker competed in the US Open Local Qualifier at Cherokee CC in Madison yesterday. Justin scored even par on the first nine holes, then struggled with a few wayward shots on the back where he had to take three penalty strokes. 

But he battled back to only 2 over par for the round as he stood on the 18th tee. If he makes a birdie on the hole, he qualifies, if he pars the hole, he is in a playoff for the last spot. We (Chip caddying) decided that going for birdie was the plan to follow. 

Justin chose a driver off the tee on the 440 yard dogleg right par 4. Unfortunately the ball hit the top of a tree on the dogleg and fell down into a very poor lie. Half the ball resting under the surface of the rough in a hole, with a clump of mud and roots in front of it. Justin knew birdie was needed so he decided to try the punch shot from 180 yards out from under the trees. The ball jumped off the club at a funny angle because of the very poor lie, causing it to hit a tree in front of him and bounce into a hazard. 

A triple bogey 7 was the result of this bad break. 

We are very proud of him for putting himself into the position to qualify, and for fighting hard all day with some of the best golf shots I (Chip) have ever seen hit. Good job Justin, next time the ball will bounce the right way...it all evens out.

Welcome to Marshfield Country Club. Great Golf in Marshfield, Wisconsin!


Marshfield Country Club offers you Real Golf in central Wisconsin, golf the way it's meant to be played. This is an "open to the public" club where the pace is relaxed and friendly, where we make you feel at home and where we provide great playing conditions to enhance your round.

Our course has 18 intriguing holes, set amid gently rolling hills and thick woods in central Wisconsin. It's the perfect layout for all levels of golfers - low and high handicappers, men, women, seniors, juniors, even those just starting out in the fascinating game of golf.

If you love to test your clubs and take a few risks, Marshfield Country Club can challenge your length and your accuracy. And watch out for those streams and nature areas that seem to pop up everywhere. You'll have to play here more than once to master your approaches to the greens. And those greens? We think you're going to find some of them are the most challenging putting surfaces in central Wisconsin. Some players even call them "sneaky."

But if you want a golf course that's always fun and playable whatever your skill level, you can pick a tee box here that suits you. We believe that anyone can reach most of our greens without frustration by taking a couple of solid hits.

We have a long and sterling tradition in this part of central Wisconsin. Our first nine was built in 1922. In 1965, PGA golf professional Darrell Acker Sr. bought our course, opened it to the public, added another nine and turned Marshfield Country Club into the fun and friendly place it is today for public golf. Chip and Pam Acker currently own and operate the course and have continued to lavish love and hard work on Marshfield Country Club, carefully grooming the fairways and greens, while maintaining the historic atmosphere of turn of the century (20th) golf.

We have recently completed a renovation project that replaced the deck, upgraded the men's room, added a wheelchair accessible ramp and new storage area, and created our new MCC Grille that will allow us to serve food all day, every day. 

That family atmosphere means we're working all the time to come up with ways to make your game a pleasure. You'll find great practice facilities, cutting-edge golf instruction, programs geared toward beginners and families and fantastic experiences for groups who come here for outings.

Visit us soon, and find out why the best times are had at Marshfield Country Club.
